NASCAR Cup Series

Joey Logano will return home tonight a $1 million richer after winning in the Queen City. The driver of the No. 22 Team Penske Ford out-dueled Kyle Larson in the final 13 laps to win the Sprint All-Star Race at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

Roush Fenway Racing’s Trevor Bayne and Greg Biffle swept the first two segments in Saturday morning’s Sprint Showdown race at Charlotte Motor Speedway to race their way into tonight’s Sprint All-Star Race; keeping alive Roush Fenway’s streak of now 27 consecutive All-Star starts.

revor Bayne, Greg Biffle and Kyle Larson rocketed to segment victories in an exhilarating Saturday afternoon Sprint Showdown, the prelude to Saturday night’s fender-banging NASCAR Sprint All-Star Race at Charlotte Motor Speedway, while Chase Elliott andDanica Patrick claimed the final two positions in the biggest all-star event in sports by being the top vote-getters in the Sprint Fan Vote.

KYLE LARSON, NO. 42 TARGET CHEVROLET SS – Winner of Segment #3 of the Sprint Showdown and will make his first NASCAR Sprint All-Star Race start: “We had a good Target Chevy. I knew Chase (Elliott) was going to be good on four tires and he was going to win the fan vote and I probably wasn’t going to win the fan vote. So, I did what I could do.”

Five drivers have raced their way into the Sprint All-Star Race and a chance at a million dollars. Trevor Bayne, Greg Biffle and Kyle Larson raced their way into the main event by winning one of the three segments in the Sprint Showdown. Danica Patrick and Chase Elliott were voted by fans into the All-Star Race.

GREG BIFFLE – No. 16 Cheez-It Ford Fusion – TALK ABOUT THAT STRATEGY OF TWO TIRES UNDER CAUTION AND TWO MORE BETWEEN SEGMENTS? “Brian Pattie is a very, very smart veteran crew chief in this sport and it was his call. I was skeptical of it, trust me, but I tell you what, what really made the difference was we made a chassis adjustment, two left side tires, the car was really fast the last single lap that we made under green and I was able to pass four cars in one lap."

Trevor Bayne won the first 20-lap segment of the Sprint Showdown to advance to tonight’s scheduled All-Star Race. Here are Bayne’s post-race comments.
